How many weeks post relaxer are you right now? 10 weeks 6 days

When is your next touch up? Who knows maybe in August for school, well thats the plan at least. Or maybe in 5 weeks it depends on how my hair is acting.

What relaxer will you use? Going back to old trusty Design Essential

Are you going to a salon or will you self-relax? Back to the salon

I relaxed Tuesday at 13 wks post. I ended my 20-24 post goal...too much stress on my relaxed hair.

I will stick with the 13-15 wk post mark.

I'm currently 3 days post relaxer :grin:!

You and me both PinkPebbles. I cannot do the 20 + weeks post anymore. My hair even though texlaxed, still suffers from demarcation breakage. This is my third time around and I am NOT having that:nono:.

I am currently 2 weeks and 5 days post and will be stretching for about 14 weeks.

12 weeks today and relaxing on June 2, around 23 weeks post. I braid my hair w/o extensions and cornrowns my hair about every 2-4 weeks so that way it is easier for me to stay out of my hair and just moisturize my hair

Well I'm now 15 weeks post. I may not last till June. But I'm trying really hard to.

I am 13 weeks post and I will be relaxing in a little over 1 week. I normally relax at 12 weeks, but have been sick and on antibiotics from a sinus infection. I stopped all medication on Sunday.

I am paranoid about relaxing while having medication in my system. I think a week should be enough time for me to relax safely.

3.5 weeks post and will be texlaxing even straighter than the last one next round in about 2.5 more weeks.

I will not stretch too long this time around but I intend to stretch for the next round to about 11-12 weeks.

I don't think I will be stretching longer than this for a while but I will definitely be playing it by air.

@Divachyk and Nix08 Yes, I'm with you ladies. I think my calendar has our week to relax around June 30th.

I'm mad at myself for trimming my hair so much lately but it will grow back:(

I'm 0 days post. :lol: I just relaxed at 10 weeks post, early for me, but quite underprocessed from last time, so it seemed like double the new growth. I had to knock it out.

divachyk It feels better. My problem now is I can't keep my hands out of it. I probably need to trim a little more off b/c I feel it snagging but I'm staying away from the scissors until next month

17weeks and some days. Will be 18 weeks on Friday.


I guess I'm pushing it to 20 weeks since I'm being lazy. Looks like this may be a 2 relaxer year for me (I haven't relaxed at all this year so far....).

I dont know because I am very underprocessed. All I do know is that Im going to attack my hair with a blowdryer and flat iron tomorrow. I tried with the bantu knots and such but my NG wont let any styles be great.

I relaxed on Tuesday so as of today I am 5 days post... It feels weird not to have a mountain of new growth on my head but I considering as a starting over point to learn from any mistakes I may have made in my first stretch ever (48 months) I plan to relax at 15 weeks

How many weeks post relaxer are you right now? 3 days shy of 7 weeks

When is your next touch up? 10 weeks post

What relaxer will you use? Not sure...but I need to find out what my Stylist has been using?

Are you going to a salon or will you self-relax? To a salon but I admire the whole "do it yourself and taking charge of your hair!"

I will be asking my Stylist to texlax my hair.
